Results from the LAO social indicator survey (LSIS). Vientiane: Mother and Child Diagnostic de la situation nutritionnel et consommation alimentaire au Laos. Rapport complet de l étude sur l état nutritionnel de la population Laotienne. ESNA :TCP/LAO/2354. Rome: Food and Agriculture Organization, 1995 Report on national health survey: Health status of the people in Lao PDR. Vientiane, Lao People s Democratic Republic, January 2001 Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey 2000 Acronym LSIS93 FAO94 NHS00 MICS00 50 LAO PDR - PREVALENCE OF UNDERWEIGHT CHILDREN (UNDER FIVE YEARS OF AGE) % of children under LSIS93 FAO94 NHS00 MICS00 Observed Line MDG Line LSIS93, FAO95, NHS00, MICS00: Children 0-4 years old. 1

2 Percentage of children under five years who are classified as undernourished according to the anthropometric index of nutritional status: weight-for-age. The index is expressed in terms of the number of standard deviation (SD) units from the median of the NCHS/CDC/WHO international reference population. Children are classified as malnourished if their z-scores are below minus two standard deviations (-2 SD) from the median of the reference population. To achieve MDGs (to halve the prevalence of underweight children), 2.8% of annual reduction is needed between , shown as MDG line in the graph. Lao PDR s progress, shown as observed line, is slower than MDG line, and it is about 0.8% of annual reduction. Additional indicators: Stunting, Breastfeeding, Vitamin A Prevalence of stunting (height for age <2 Z-scores) in children under 5 (%) % of infants under 6 months who are exclusively breastfed 0-3 months 4-6 months % of children months who consumed vitamin A supplements Note: Breastfeeding status refers to 24 hours preceding the survey. Stunting data refers children the same age as underweight. Source: For vitamin A, UNICEF/Nutrition Section survey 2000 For stunting and breastfeeding, the same as underweight 2

Under-five mortality rate Acronym 1994 Fertility and Birth Spacing Survey (direct) LFS94d 250 LAO PDR - UNDER-FIVE MORTALITY Under-five mortality rate (per 1000 births) LFB94d KH line WDI04 MDG Line Direct estimates: Infant and under-five mortality rates are calculated from the data from a sample survey that collects birth histories, with a mother being asked for information on the date of birth and, if relevant, the age at death of every live-born child she has had. However, the collection of such information by surveys is complex and requires high levels of interviewer quality and training. The surveys are therefore quite expensive and can only cover small samples. Indirect estimates: Indirectly, under-five mortality and infant mortality can be calculated by asking each woman surveyed for very simple information: her age, the total number of children she has borne, and the number of those children that have died. Indirect estimates adjust the proportions dead by age group of mother for an estimated exposure distribution in order to arrive at pure measures of under-five mortality and of reference dates for these measures. The information from the younger women gives under-five mortality of more recent years whereas the information from the older women gives under-five mortality of more distant years. The adjustment process assumes certain patterns of fertility and under-five mortality by age (East, North, South, West model life tables), and results can be quite sensitive to the choices made. 3

4 KH line: The line was estimated by fitting a regression line to the relationship between infant or under 5 mortality rates and their reference dates using weighted least squares. The method of estimation is adopted from the papers: 1) K. Hill, R. Pande and G. Jones, Trends in child mortality in the developing world: 1990 to 1995, UNICEF staff working papers, Evaluation, Policy and Planning Series, UNICEF, New York, ) K.

WDI04: Estimates used for World Development Indicators To achieve MDGs (to reduce under five mortality by 2/3), 4.4% of annual reduction is needed between Lao PDR s progress, shown as WDI04 line, is slower than MDG line, and it is about 4.1% of annual reduction between Additional indicators: Child (aged 1-4) mortality rate by gender Child (aged 1-4) mortality rate (per 1000 births) Survey year Male Female Note: Mortality rates are for the ten-year period preceding the survey Source: 4

Proportion of 1-year-old children immunized against measles Reported to WHO by country Reported to UNICEF by country Report on Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS 1996), The graph is taken from WHO web site. Draft WHO/UNICEF estimate: WHO/UNICEF estimates of the most likely coverage for each year and antigen were made based on data from the WHO and UNICEF data bases and information from other sources. WHO and UNICEF consulted with Regional Offices and, where possible, national experts, to seek more in-depth knowledge regarding the functioning of the immunization system. 7

For a country with the Reproductive Age Mortality Survey (RAMOS) type estimates of maternal mortality. The maternal mortality ratio derived from the RAMOS study is used directly without any adjustments. Source: Revised 1990 estimates of maternal mortality: a new approach by WHO and UNICEF. WHO95: The WHO, UNICEF, UNFPA estimate. Maternal mortality estimates derived from Reproductive Age Mortality Studies (RAMOS). For countries with RAMOS-type surveys, the observed MMR is generally taken without adjustments. Source: Maternal mortality in 1995: Estimates developed by WHO, UNICEF, UNFPA WHO00: The WHO, UNICEF and UNFPA estimate. The method is used for countries with no national data on maternal mortality. The estimates are developed using the model. For each country, the regression model is used to predict PMDF, and the prediction then applied to WHO estimates of non-hiv deaths of women of reproductive age in 2000 to calculate maternal deaths. The MMR is then obtained by dividing the number of maternal deaths by an estimate of the number of live births in 2000 derived from the United Nations projections (2000 Revision).

MICS00: Proportion of births in the one year before the survey attended by skilled health personnel. Doctor, nurse/midwife, auxiliary midwife is considered to be skilled health personnel. Additional reproductive health indicators: Fertility rate Adolescent fertility Total fertility rate (per woman) rate (per 1000 women aged 15-19) Note: Total fertility rate is average lifetime total of live births per woman at the fertility rates of the year.

12 HIV prevalence among pregnant women UNAIDS/WHO Epidemiological Fact Sheet 2002 Update (No graph) The graphs are taken from WHO web site. Trends in HIV prevalence among antenatal clinic attendees. The data reported are mainly based on the HIV database maintained by the United States Bureau of the Census where data from different sources, including national reports, scientific publications and international conferences are compiled. Studies conducted in the same year are aggregated and the median prevalence rates are given for each of the categories. The maximum and minimum prevalence rates observed are also provided. The differentiation between the two geographical areas Urban and Rural is not based on strict criteria, such as the number of inhabitants. For most countries, urban areas were considered to be the capital city and where applicable other metropolitan areas with similar socio-economic patterns. The term rural considers that most sentinel sites are not located in strictly rural areas, even if they are located in somewhat rural districts. 12
